Position and Title Description
1.600 POSITION TITLE AND POSITION DESCRIPTION
A position title should accurately reflect the work that is performed as described in the position description. The position title and description are used as the bases for recruitment. They are also used as the source document for evaluating and measuring effective performance.
The work that is performed in a particular position may evolve and change over time. For this reason managers are asked to review each position description on an annual basis to assure that the description continues to describe the work to be accomplished in a particular position. Managers are asked to submit a position description with the annual performance appraisal for each employee.
If a position description is changed significantly, it may be necessary to reevaluate the responsibility level of the position and the corresponding salary range. The salary range for the position is consistent with the duties and responsibilities as described by the position description. The College participates in various local, regional and national surveys each year. The results of these surveys are used to determine both comparable positions and comparable ranges for positions.
